A method of treating knee abnormalities includes securing the portion of the leg above the knee to a stationary object and securing the portion of the leg below the knee to a movable support. A force is applied to the movable support to stretch the knee joint. An apparatus for carrying out the method is also disclosed. The apparatus may be fitted with a controller system which allows the apparatus to be operated wirelessly from a mobile device running a mobile application, which may communicate with a web-based portal and/or database.

An insulation application assembly for applying insulation to a power line employs an open-ended enclosure to partly surround a segment of the power line. The assembly employs an insulation material conveying mechanism to move insulation material from insulation storage to the insulation material applicator connected to the interior surface of the open-ended enclosure.

A pegboard of the present disclosure includes: a main device including multiple unit modules; a board plate including multiple receiving portions; and multiple pegs to be inserted into the multiple receiving portions, and the multiple unit modules include multiple sensor modules configured to sense whether the multiple pegs are inserted into the multiple receiving portions and multiple light source modules configured to output light to the multiple receiving portions.

Disclosed is a massage apparatus. The massage apparatus includes a vibration array including a plurality of vibration devices, a driver configured to vibrate the plurality of vibration devices, and a processor configured to control the driver to generate a stimulus at a stimulus point between the plurality of vibration devices by simultaneously vibrating two or more vibration devices among the plurality of vibration devices.

Disclosed embodiments provide a pressure field stimulation device having an arm adaptable in shape. Embodiments of the improved stimulation device include a cup, a driver, and an arm. The arm is flexible in such a way that it holds its position when bent. The adaptable arm may be a handle, a member insertable into the vagina or rectum, or a connection member between the pressure field stimulator and another stimulator. In use, a user positions a rim of the cup such that an opening to the cavity is over an area to be stimulated (e.g., the clitoris). A sealed-, or substantially-sealed, chamber is formed by the cavity walls and the user's skin (surrounding the clitoris). A pressure field is generated in the chamber, providing sexual stimulation to the clitoris. The user can adjust the placement of the cup by bending the arm.

Methods for treating Blepharitis, Meibomian Gland Dysfunction and Dry Eye Syndrome include thermal massage, thermal debridement, and thermal expression. Particular embodiments include use of handheld devices that provide the thermal therapy to tissue by contacting a surface heated with thermal energy to a patient's tissue. Thermal energy can be continuously provided during operation. In particular embodiments, a handheld device comprises a base assembly operatively connected to a removeable thermal energy applicator. A wide range of thermal applicators may be connected to the base assembly to provide different treatments, including heat application, debridement, and expression of the treated tissue or gland.

A lip plumping device includes a positive pressure device having a striking rod and striking head attached on the an end of the striking rod; a force-generating element to propel the striking head with energy which upon impacting on a target spot on a lip or in an area around the lip increases blood flood to the target spot on the lip or in the area around the lip which produces a lip plumping effect; and a button that controls the force-generating element. The target spot and a striking force of the positive pressure device is controlled by instructions from a computing device.

A control system for a whirlpool bath installation, including a single input source wiring for connecting to an input source of high voltage AC electrical power having a nominal current rating. A plurality of high voltage output connections are connected to the input source through a corresponding plurality of switches, for power connections to a respective high voltage load devices, whose cumulative nominal current draw ratings exceeds the current rating of the input source. An electronic controller controls states of the switches in response to user input commands. The electronic controller implements an algorithm or a set of rules preventing a system utilization of the high voltage loads from exceeding a total current draw exceeding said nominal maximum current rating.

A cold and heat cosmetic instrument, including: a casing, a jade massage piece, a heat sink, and a cooling and heating piece. The casing defines therein an opening, the jade massage piece is arranged at the opening, and the casing and the jade massage piece are sealed to form a first accommodation chamber. The heat sink and the cooling and heating piece are arranged within the first accommodation chamber. The cooling and heating piece is in contact with the heat sink and the jade massage piece, respectively. A cold and heat cosmetic mechanism includes: a wireless charging station and the cold and heat cosmetic instrument. A receiver device for electromagnetic induction charging is arranged within the first accommodation chamber. A wireless charging station defines therein a second accommodation chamber. A transmitter device for electromagnetic induction charging is accommodated in the second accommodation chamber and connected with a charging data cable.

A system is disclosed. The system has an accessory control module, comprising computer-executable code stored in non-volatile memory, a processor, a user device of a human viewer, a viewer accessory configured to communicate with the user device, the viewer accessory including a first motor or a first heater, a model device of a human model, and a model accessory configured to communicate with the model device, the model accessory including a second motor or a second heater. The accessory control module, the processor, the user device, the viewer accessory, the model device, and the model accessory are configured to provide a chat communication application between the human viewer and the human model configured to provide chat between the human viewer via the user device and the human model via the model device.
